The parade was led by a cordon of police, followed by the marshals, the First Regiment Band, the Palmetto Riflemen flag borne by P. A. McDavid, of 'Greenville, and four ladies, the remnant of Palmetto Riflemen (twenty in number,) about 700 Confederate Veterans, the Second Regiment Band, the local military company, the Bcry Scouts, Zion School Band, truck of the fire department, decorated automobiles, Veterans in automobiles, Sons of Veterans and many decorated buggies and carriages. School children to the number of 3,500, each carrying a Confederate flag, were banked against the curb to review the parade.

Dr. Steele, of Atlanta, made an address at the Reunion tent, his subject being "Dixie During the War." The Veterans began leaving the city this afternoon, and by the early morning all will be gone. CONDITION OF COTTON CROP. 78.2 Per Cent. May 23d, According to Special Report. New York, May 28.?The condition of cotton on an average date of May 23d, was 78.2 per cent., as compared with 80.5 per cent, a year ago, 76^9 in 1912 and 83.8 in 1911. The ten-year average is 78.9 per cent. Owing to continued drought in several of the States cotton is very late in germinating, and estimates of condition are incomplete. This is particularly true of the Carolinas and Georgia, and to-a lesser degree in Alabama and Arkansas. The comparatively low condition in Texas and Oklahoma is largely attributable to excessive rains, which have rendered conditions in large sections very bad. The season in Texas is unusually late, averaging 24 days, while in Oklahoma it averages 18 days. The whole belt is about two weeks late. THE STATE CAMPAIGN".

Washington, May 28.?When asked what impression had been made on him by the new rules adopted for the Democratic primary by the recent State Convention, Senator Tillman to-day said to the correspondent of The News and Courier: "I was very much pleased at the action of the Convention. It went farther in the direction of safeguards than T had ever hoDed it would 20. It is all right to screw the cap down 1 tight, provided it is not screwed so tight as to snap the threads; and it has not been screwed that tight in this case. I wish the Convention had adopted my suggestion of having each ballot stamped. On the whole, however, I can say that I am delighted." Senator E. D. Smith, when the same question was put to him, responded as follows: "I am gratified to see that the Convention was so unanimous and harmonious and that their action in modifying the primary rules was by such a tremendous majority of the Convention. This would indicate an overwhelming sentiment in the State for modification of the existing rules governing the primary, Every effort should be made to acquaint every voter with the new rules in order that he may enroll himself and be prepared for the pri mary."
